Victoria Dare and the Blood of Kings
Egypt, 1939. A world on the edge of war.
For sixteen-year-old Victoria Dare, joining her famous father on an archaeological dig outside Cairo is a chance to finally prove herself worthy of her family’s legacy. But when the search for a legendary scroll attracts the attention of rival treasure hunters, the expedition quickly turns deadly.
Fleeing for her life, Victoria fights not just for survival, but also for answers. Why are Nazi occultists and Russian assassins suddenly pursuing her? Who is the mysterious “Shrouded Man” that searches for her in dreams? And what is so important about her blood that Hitler’s agents will stop at nothing to capture it.
Across mountains and continents, through deserts, ruins, and catacombs, Victoria must decide who she can trust—and who she’s willing to become—to learn the truth and recover an ancient treasure that could change the course of history.
